So, here's an interesting thought. When I first saw the acronym FUD, I thought it was another way of expressing an expletive without being too direct, so I was somewhat forgiving, as in my mind, it was a new form of writing FARK and a shorter way too.
Then I heard the same FUD being spoken on Youtube, not as F . U .D ., but as FUD, like the way it is said as in FARK, and I was somewhat squeamish when I heard it. Some things still do not change and expletives are alright if used to express an emotion that socially will not be acceptable unless there is a real need to express it to punctuate a point sharply.
However, if the sound of FUD and FARK are so similar in the audio realm, then it can become problematic to the user as well as the listener.
So, why not evolve FUD into DUF and this problem goes away immediately.
For those who see or hear FUD for the first time here and is wondering what it means. Well, it is the short form or acronym for Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt.
So, let's consider using DUF instead of FUD and you're still good in every sense without changing or moderating its meaning and usage.
Do give this post an Upvote if you agree with this change and use DUF to express Doubt, Uncertainty and Fear and let FUD rest in peace from now on. Yay!!
